Biomatics is a discipline that networks biology, philosophy, mathematics, informatics, and mechanics to describe all biological information structures in holistic ways. It is also a short name of Systems Bioengineering. Unlike bioinformatics which is the science of information retrieval from textual data, biomatics involves engineering, cellular and molecular biology, and hardware.
The major difference between biomatics and other biological fields such as bioinformatics is that Biomatics is associated with design and construction (synthesis) of biological objects and machineries under mathematical principles.
